Works for me.

You sparked my interest because it sounds like you're working on 
something similar to what I cover in a blog I've been writing 
since January (http://gtkdcoding.com).

Rather than write something from scratch like you guys (I'm not 
that brave) I take an OOP approach to GtkD, modularizing so it's 
as close to using Lego as possible.

This blog is a revamp of another I started back in 2006 for 
PHP-GTK, but using D rather than PHP and updated to GTK 3.x. The 
original also included an application framework (which I haven't 
yet reproduced in D) with a pluggable do/undo/redo system.

So you can see why I perked up when I read your thread.

And I assume your framework is written with D as a base language? 
And you said it's cross-platform, too? Windows, Mac, Linux? Are 
any of the BSDs supported?

Assuming all that, we're very much of the same mind: 
cross-platform GUI applications made fast-n-easy using a single 
language and toolkit.
